Got the impression the gripper wasn't familiar with the format at

didn't they used to just read R1256 or Z1256 (haven't got an old
one to hand) - might the numbering system have added to the

They still say R1256 Zones, or did in May anyway.


As noted on this group, it's changed and a Day Travelcard now (October)
says

-station name- & LONDON ZONES 1-6
